    [Albion] Andy, 29 from Sussex

    I do still get to 2 or 3 games a season and ironically almost enjoy it more as a treat, than actually going every week. Certainly not complaining though at all. It's life - some people can afford things and some can't or are priced out. We just remove some of the luxuries in life that can be...

    [Albion] Andy, 29 from Sussex

    Sadly football is still a luxury item, and as passionate as most of us our about our club, when finances bite it is easily something that can be ditched however tough that may feel. Andy's story (no relation) is similar to mine and at least eight other friends I know who have not renewed due to...

    [News] Some better news at last

    Similar to us. When I was in my early 20's I worked 2 jobs over 70 hours per week to pay the mortgage (with rates back then being 3 times what they are now), when most of my friends we out larging it up on nights out. We have no mortgage now but little savings either. The economic climate...

    [NSC] Your garden.

    It's so mild here in Shoreham I've even seen a few daffodil shoots appearing - what gives? The great thing is we won't need the heating on until January at the earliest at this rate.

    [Football] QATAR dangle the freebies - where would you stand ?

    Not even going to watch it this time - partly as we are on holiday, but to me the whole thing just stinks. The way they bought the tournament. The whoreing of celebrities like Beckham to make even more dirty money The obvious human rights issues Glad we'll be away.

    [Albion] Facundo Buonanotte **On Loan To Leicester 10/08/24**

    Chelsea looking to take him off our hands in January for £60m

    [Football] Qatar World Cup

    I won't be watching this one, partly due to the obvious reasons which have been discussed at length before, and also because we're planning to go on holiday for the first 3 weeks of the tournament. Rather be on a beach in Egypt than watching the telly box.

    [Albion] Leandro Trossard SIGNS ON A FOUR-YEAR DEAL

    Agreed, although if he won't sign a new deal then selling him in January might see the best price for him. If we wait until the summer when he would have 1 year left (assuming the club takes up the 1 year option), we will be in the same situation as Biss (with 1 year left), who most of us...

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Chelsea *** Official Match Thread ***

    Just reading a few of the comments on the Chelsea board about wanting Potter out already! Yes they were outplayed yesterday and the views expressed I read were only from 30 or 40 so called fans, but what will they be like if GP loses 3 or 4 in a row?

    [Football] Marc Cucurella

    Objectively Cucu would have benefitted from at least one more (possibly 2 seasons with us) as it was quite a gamble for Chelsea to take a player from us who only had 1 season's experience in the Prem. Ultimately his departure was handled badly by his agent in my view, but looking at it now the...

    [Albion] Highlight of today ?

    [Albion] Zerbi - instant hero?

    Apparently he's on his way to Chelsea on Sunday for an interview to take over from Potter.

    [Football] MOTD - 22:30 BBC One

    Should be first on, then time to turn over to Ch4 to watch Halloween - appropriate for how Potter probably feels this evening. Nightmare.

    [Albion] Pervis Estupiñán - SIGNED - 5 YEAR CONTRACT

    Yeah I agree. Didn't appear to throw his toys out of his pram by being dropped recently but really caught the eye. Improving all the time and a great positive attitude. Well played big P.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Chelsea *** Official Match Thread ***

    When was the last time we played the opening 11/12 matches of a season and not one goal came from a recognised striker? One for the statos out there.
